Mike Taulty and Mike Ormond just published a series of Silverlight 2 screencasts.

You can access them all at this website: http://www.silverlightscreencasts.com

Of course you will need Silverlight 2 Beta 1 to see the screencasts (and to try out the samples also the SDK and tools available there).

Among the topics covered are:

• Getting started with DeepZoom and DeepZoom Composer (if you have not heard about DeepZoom… take a look at this http://memorabilia.hardrock.com)
• A lot about the interaction between a Silverlight app and its HTML container
• Local storage for Silverlight Apps
• Making calls to Web Services from a Silverlight app
• Data binding
• Custom controls

Basically pretty much you always wanted to know but were afraid to ask about Silverlight 2!!!!
